A woman who broke her back after falling through a trapdoor while preparing for an Agatha Christie play is suing a theatre for more than £3million.
Cheryl Palmer, 68, was waiting for the audience to arrive to a production of And Then There Were None at the Archway Theatre in Horley, Surrey, when she fell six feet through a trap door into a tunnel used by stage staff.
The theatre director shattered one of her vertebra in the June 2019 fall, and says she has now been left "partially paraplegic" as a result.
